Hi ashwini,

There are few things which you can check:
1. Please logged in with user other than the owner of the content.
2. Please check if you have configure "Inherit Parent Space Permission ". Make this unchecked and notice the difference.

Thanks,

Thanks Amita ,
I have checked this .
Other users cant delete the content but owner of the content can do delete.

Is it possible to change the owner once the content get uploaded Or how I can do this.

If you have any idea then Please share with me

Thanks

Yes , you can change the owner of the content. Please check the action "Take Ownership" in Details Action list.

Thanks Amita ,
I didnt found Take ownership in Share Repository

Alfresco Explorer:
To do this as we follow view details and then we will find take ownership under Action section

Alfresco Share Repository:
Share does not have take ownership on view details page for Folders.(After Clicking View Details link for Folder )
Share does not have view Details for Content

Is it possble to do this by any other way ?

Thanks for your help

As far as I know , you can do from Alfresco Explorer . In order to have this action in Share , you have to customize it.
Apart from the user interface , you can do from API.

Thanks,
